About Kidney Research UK:

Kidney Research UK is the leading charity in the UK focused on funding research into the prevention, treatment and management of kidney disease. Our vision is the day when everyone lives free from kidney disease and for more than 60 years the research, we fund has been making an impact. But kidney disease is increasing as are the factors contributing to it, such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease and obesity, making our work more essential than ever.

At Kidney Research UK we work with clinicians and scientists across the UK, funding and facilitating research into all areas of kidney disease. We collaborate with partners across the public, private and third sectors to prevent kidney disease and drive innovation to transform treatments.

Over the last ten years we have invested more than £65 million into research. We lobby governments and decision makers to change policy and practice to ensure that the estimated 7.2 million people living with all stages of kidney disease in the UK have access to the most effective care and treatment, and to make kidney disease a priority.

Most importantly, we also work closely with patients, ensuring their voice is heard and is at the centre of everything we do, from deciding which research to invest in to how we plan our priorities and our work across the charity.

Those patient contributions are vital, always helping us and our partners to understand what life is like with kidney disease, always ensuring we see the patient behind the treatment and always reminding us that behind every statistic and every number is a person – the patients and the carers who inspire our mission and push us forward to make a difference and change the future of kidney disease.

Restless Development is a global non profit agency. We support the collective power of young leaders to create a better world. We are independently registered and governed in nine countries (India, Nepal, Sierra Leone, Tanzania, Uganda, UK, USA, Zambia and Zimbabwe) bound together by our vision for youth power. We run youth-led programmes to tackle the issues that young people care about the most. We also run the Youth Collective – a growing network of over 4000 local youth civil society groups and organisations in 185 countries. We are committed to creating an agency that walks the talk on power shifting, using the power shifting checklist, both internally and externally.

Our approach to safeguarding

Restless Development considers the welfare and protection of children, young people and vulnerable adults to be an organisational imperative with primacy over the success of programmes or strategic objectives. We recognise that safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility and we expect all of our staff, volunteers and partners to ensure we protect the communities in which we operate from harm and abide by our Safeguarding Policy.

About the role

The £4.5m Young Gamechangers Fund (YGF) is an exciting UK funding initiative that provides grants of up to £20,000 a year to young people transforming communities into safer, more sustainable and more inclusive places to live.

Health and Social Care Coordinator

Our client seeks to recruit a further professional with a health and/or social care background to tackle health inequalities and ensure the most vulnerable in our society can access the care they need. This is a great opportunity to be part of a supportive and relaxed multi-disciplinary team, undertaking challenging and highly interesting work.

Their vision:

They were founded in partnership with, and for the benefit of, Gypsy, Roma and Traveller communities. They believe in a world where everyone is included and afforded respect, dignity and justice. There must be no exceptions on account of ethnicity, religion, gender, disability, sexuality, social background – or indeed anything else. They believe that this full inclusion is possible for Gypsy, Roma and Traveller communities and they look forward to being part of a society where this is realised.

Purpose and duties:

Gypsy, Roma and Traveller communities have the poorest health outcomes out of any ethnic groups in the UK, including in relation to child mortality, suicide rates and life expectancy (House of Commons, 2019). Our communities face multi-faceted barriers to accessing statutory services. To that end, they are recruiting a Health and Social Care Coordinator to:

• Work within a collaborative, multi-disciplinary team to empower and meet the needs of clients.
• Work with individuals and families who have complex health and social care needs, advocating for them, and empowering them to navigate healthcare and social care systems.
• Develop strong relationships with health and social care providers to tackle health inequalities and get the best outcomes for our communities and clients.

Person specification:

The successful candidate will be committed to achieving excellent outcomes for clients and be aligned with the vision and values of the charity. They will be warm and compassionate, yet also able to demonstrate healthy boundaries and professionalism. They will have experience of successful work with vulnerable people and an understanding of health and social care systems. They will be able to demonstrate excellent verbal and written communication, in addition to sound IT skills. They will have resilience – and a sense of humour is also a must!
Please note that they are looking for potential as much as experience in their recruitment.

Working with them:

They believe their team are their greatest asset, placing a premium on staff welfare and providing staff excellent professional development opportunities for people to take forward in their careers. Everyone demonstrates a personal commitment to serving others and working towards their vision. They are a relaxed and collaborative team, with a big sense of humour.
